The Easiest Chocolate Mousse Ever image

The trick here is that instead of beating egg whites into peaks, you whip the chocolate and egg together in a blender. Salmonella from underdone eggs is rare, but if you're concerned about partly uncooked yolks, skip this for the kids and save it for the adults.

This mousse is a bit too rich for my taste. I prefer something a little lighter and airier.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate mousse, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so rich and creamy, and the chocolate flavor is divine. I'll definitely be making this again for my next dinner party.

Meh. This mousse was just okay. It wasn't as light and fluffy as I expected, and the chocolate flavor was a bit bland.

I've tried many chocolate mousse recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's not too sweet, not too bitter, and the texture is perfect. I will definitely be making this again and again.
